Winner of the 2018 Apple Award from the Guides Association for New York City, Outstanding Achievement in Nonfiction Book Writing.

Part One of World War I New York: A Guide to the City’s Enduring Ties to the Great War covers all five Boroughs of New York City, as well as parts of Long Island and New Jersey. These are the places that were active during the war years, 1914-1918. This guide shows where the war touched, from the recruiting offices in Madison Square Park to the location on Governors Island where General John J. Pershing departed for France. Most of these locations have never been written about before, and this guide includes maps to where they were located.

In Part Two, see the locations of the nearly 150 monuments and memorials in the city. While some might be familiar with the statue to Father Francis Duffy in Times Square, there are memorials and plaques tucked in quiet corners of all five Boroughs. New York has 15 Doughboy statues, more than any other city in the country, as well as tiny neighborhood memorials.
